Re: Who do you admire?

Stewie Griffin. From the wretched abyss of his mother's womb, he managed to wait 9 months for the struggle to be pulled out of the darkness and try to reign supreme over the world. I admire him for his courage and determination to work towards his goals!

Re: Who do you admire?

i don't really admire any big time celebrities other than probably fiona apple. but beyond that, i prolly just admire local artists and people i know around town. also the guy i'm seeing, he's pretty amazing too.

Re: Who do you admire?

Above all others I admire a man named Randy Pausch, a professor from the Carnegie-Mellon University. After he found out he had Pancreatic Cancer (widely considered the most lethal form of cancer) he gave a speech and wrote a book about achieving your childhood dreams and about how to treat others in life. It was titled "The Last Lecture."

Pausch spent the finals months of his life with his family and fighting to get funding for research that could save others in the future who would be diagnosed with the same form of caner.

Randy Pausch died in the Summer of 2008, but his best selling book, The Last Lecture, remained on the New York Times Best Selling list for another three years. I encourage you to watch the above video and seek out his book. I watched it for the first time five years ago, and it still inspires me. He is the closest thing to a real life hero I've ever seen.

Re: Who do you admire?

There are a lot of people that I admire. I admire from celebs to some of my classmates or friends. But it kinda freaks me out that I am almost exactly turning into my senior video major friend who's always late for class and 'kinda' always get abandoned by classmates or teammates even though he delivers the goods. Except the rich part though. He's filthy rich.

Brilliant choice! I forgot about him. A true inspiration. I have his book.
